Any plans on making this as a framework?

Hi, thanks for your participation!

Actually, there were ideas about generating all the template code via dart run build_runner that would be applicable for existing Flutter projects. However, we're not sure if it will have a lot of demand and that's why we were leaving this as a template.

What do you think? Would converting this as a framework have a meaningful benefit to users out there?

Thank you for considering the idea of building a Rust and Flutter-based framework. Introducing Rust into the Flutter ecosystem can offer several potential benefits.

By leveraging Rust's performance advantages, such as its efficient memory management and low-level control, your framework could potentially deliver enhanced performance for resource-intensive operations. This could be particularly valuable for applications that require complex calculations or real-time processing.

Combining Flutter's cross-platform development capabilities with Rust's interoperability could result in a powerful framework for building apps that seamlessly run on multiple platforms. Identifying gaps in the market and evaluating how the framework can enhance developer experience and productivity are crucial factors. If the framework offers abstractions, utilities, or code generation features that simplify common development tasks, it can save developers time and improve code quality.

There are rust based frameworks like tauri which are currently available for building desktop applications. if this framework simplifies the desktop application development process and offers distinct advantages over existing solutions, developers are likely to benefit from it.

@shan-shaji Now this is a proper Flutter framework. You can see the package at https://pub.dev/packages/rust_in_flutter.

Wow cool @temeddix
